Can you believe Peter Facinelli had no idea R-Patz and K-Stew were hiding their relationship?

We can’t tell if Peter Facinelli is pulling our leg or playing us straight! When we caught up with the sexy Twilight patriarch and asked about on-screen son Robert Pattinson’s relationship with Kristen Stewart, Peter seemed dazed and confused.

“Were they ever IN the closet?” Peter, 36, asked us incredulously at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ Evening with Nurse Jackie in North Hollywood March 15. With a slight smile, he explained, “Honestly, I haven’t talked to Rob or Kristen since Eclipse because I’ve been so busy shooting.”

Hmmm…curiouser and curiouser, Mr. Carlisle. We can’t walk down a street without seeing or hearing some sort of Rob/Kristen gossip — but with all the Twilight hoopla, your Showtime show Nurse Jackie AND a beautiful family, it’s no wonder you haven’t had time to keep up on the world’s most talked about couple!
